Winter Garden.
Every southern home should have
a winter garden, and now is the time
to plan it. A supply of lettuce,
spinach, and radishes throughout the
fall, winter, and spring can be easily
ibad and form valuable additions to the
u&ual dry winter diet. "With more or

given.
Lettuce. In growing this crop in
the open or in hot beds and cold
frames, the best results can be secured
by sowing the seed in a well preipared
'bed and transplanting the
young plants. Sow the seed thinly in
driLle 4 to 6 inches apart and cover
about 1-2 inch deep. For the best
results, transplant the young plants

frames hoe or hand weeder can be
as soon as they reach a height of 1 1-1
to 2 inches, take up the plants with
a trowel or spade and set to the permanent
bed. If planting in the fielJ,
set the plants 8 to 10 in-ches apart, in.
tcws 14 inches apart. When transplanting
to frames, the plants should
1?e set 8 to 10 inches apart each way.
Lettuce Beed is sometimes sown in
rows in the field and the plants thinn ed
out to stand the proper distance.
The soil for lettuce should he
thoroughly prepared as very little
cultivation can be given when the
8>lanta attain considerable size, rwthile
the plants are small, the soil should
JKo ^titivated to feeeo down weeds and
prevent a -crust forming. In the
frames roe or hand weeder ean be
used, while in &e open a wheel hoe
can be used to good advantage.
There are two ge/Jera} types of lettuce,
loose* leaf an4_ the heading
?types. Of the loose leaf types, the
Grand Rapids and Black Seeded
Simpson are among- the best rarities.
"whale the Big Boston is th? best
variety for market of the head type. |
For thome aiae the Hanson or California
Cream Butter might be grown
as they are of better quality than the
"Big Boston. The markets of tshe east
demand a ibard head lettuce of the
iBig Boston type, but the markets of
<ttie central use more of the loose
leaf lettuce. Unless growing for local
markets, however, it is best to grow
the headed type because large quan1ties
of the other kind are grown un?Jer
glass ni the central states.
#
Spnach. Spinach can be grown in
*fche open in all sections along the coast,
from Norfolk, Va., south and in
practically all sections of the lower
?tier of southern states. In the colder
regions of the south, this crop can "be
tgrown in the open with a little projection
or in canvass covered cold
tframes throughout the winter.
The soil should be made fairly rich.

not be more than 4 to inches apart
or just wide enough for hand hoeing
and weeding.
There are three types of radishes,
' turnip-shaped, olive-shaped, and Ion?.

ties are the Scarlet Globe and Scarlet

I the best varieties of the long type.
i White Pearl Onion will be ready
for market the first of February, il
the sets are planted the first or mid
, die of September. By planting them
this early in the fall they bring a
' fancy price in the market, coming ?n
so early in the succeeding year. Then
too, the ground will be available in
March for planting pimentoes or
some other products.
Onions require very frequent cultivation
uatil the bulb is about twc
inches in diameter, then* the soil
should be drawn awiay from the bulb,
leaving it exposed above ground, from
which, through the thread roots, it
| develops very rapidly.
Winter gardens should be planted
through July, August, and September.
To increase variety of production on
the plat the Irish, potatoes may be
gathered and spread-in a house for
keeping during the winter, leaving
the space they occupy on the plat to
be planted in beets the first of November.
These ydeld an abundant
harvest for February and March market.
They, too, require frequent cul
tivation.
CBDESOX CLOYEB.
I wish to say to the farmers a word
about Crimson clover as a money crop.
This spring a lew farmers who were
growing clover for a soiling crop dio
| not get to turn their clover undei
I when green on account of dry weather,
1 consequently their seed ripened and
I some were gathered for sale. The
farmers with whom I have talked re*
' port a yield of seed of 4 to 8 hundred
! pounds per acre. Most of these weri.
sold at 46.00 per hundred. Now
j there is good demand for them ai
$7.00 per hundred.
But even at $6.00 per hundred that
will give the farmer a net profit on
his clover acreage of from $20.00 to
S45.-00 per acre for seed.with a gooa
soiling crop to turn under. This, on
thin land, should be followed by cow.
peas in the summer, and in the fall
seeded to clover again. This practice
will materially increase the fertilityof
your soil and enable you to raise j
a profitable crop of corn or cotton

acreage to crimson clover, save all

that will enable you to turn under
